As I got ready for the tournament last Saturday, I like lots of other folks studied the reports online coming off the lake. What was working, what I could adapt and make work. Lots of factors to consider with the winds, water conditions and clarity factors that currently exist in the lake.
One of the big reports was that running Reef Runner cranks were steadily producing. That was over two weeks ago, so I wrote Reef Runner asking where I could get some of the custom colors. Even though the website had the best prices on the old mainstays, I wanted to go with what was working the best currently on the lake. So I fired off an email.
A week and half later, I get an new catalog for 2009 and new price list. Also included was a copy of my email with a hand written note, as to where I could get the cranks I wanted. Xtackle.com was the answer. Unfortunately there was no way I was going to get an order sent in and shipped out in time for Saturday. So this is going to be filed away for future reference. Best part is that on orders over 100 bills, the shipping is only $5.95.
You might inquire as to why you would need a hundred bucks worth. Hey you might not, but if you got together with a couple of buddies and say three of you got six each, that’s only 2 bucks a piece for shipping….not too shabby!
